I hope someone can help me out here. Say if I am a business owner (sole trader/partnership) can I sell a franchise to a potential buyer? Or must my business be in a Company structure in order for me to sell the franchise?
      Answer1:You can sell air...I hope this answers some of your questions.But in all seriousness, you can sell any part pertaining to a franchise if you are the sole owner. You can sell its name, its rights, its location, the whole thing, or just parts. But good luck getting a buyer who would be willing to buy only 1 part of a franchise, they would more than likely be looking for the whole cake if you know what I mean.
